Wichita, Kansas

Ball Parks

Listed

Year Opened: 1934Former Notable Players: Carlos Beltran, Chris Chambliss,
Johnny Damon, Octavio Dotel.Notes: Lawrence-Dumont Stadium is probably better known for
the amateur baseball played during the National Baseball Congress
tournament, than any of the professional baseball franchises which
have called it home. Opened as Lawrence Athletic Field, it was named
after Robert Lawrence, a leader in early Wichita. It took on the
current name in 1972 when tribute was paid to Hap Dumont, the founder
of the NBC. A series of renovations over the years have kept the
facility contemporary despite being over seventy years old. An original
light tower still remains in use behind the right field stands.
